The
Flip n Flyer: It’s all That
By Tim Connolly
Gyroscopic Action |
What looks like a psychedelic
pie-pan, and acts like a yo-yo mated with a Frisbee®? It’s
Stellar Toys’ Flip n Flyer-Gyroscopic Flying Disc. A bungee cord
looped through the center of the disc gives it the yo-yo action, but
its movement is side-to-side. So for those of us who never mastered
“walking the dog,” the Flip n Flyer makes hovering tricks much
easier to pull-off.
Fun For All Ages |
When thrown as a flying disc, the Flyer can
be caught by its “Gyro-Cord” and made to do all kinds of
between-the-legs/behind-the-back maneuvers. Stellar Toys claims “increased
hand-eye coordination” and a better understanding of “gyroscopic
principles” as secondary benefits of Flip n Flyer play, but making
for a fun family picnic would seem reason enough to have this toy
around the house. Don’t get any ideas about getting Fido in on the
action. Stellar Toys disclaimer makes it clear: “Not a Dog Toy.”
I’m guessing dogs will have ideas of their own.
